Student Organization Recognition

get started HERE

Annual recognition as a student religious organization involves the process of both the USC Office of Religious & Spiritual Life (ORSL) and USC Student Affairs - Campus Activities.

How To Gain Recognition

Step 1


One student leader from each student organization must attend one ORSL recognition meeting. Attendance will fulfill your recognition requirement for ORSL.

Review guidelines on the Campus Activities website

At least 10 members are required to form a club.

Follow the instructions and submit your application via EngageSC.

Remember, Religious Affiliates cannot serve as your University Advisor, unless they are a USC staff member. Later in the application you can complete information about who your religious affiliates is (such as a Rabbi, Imam, Swami, etc.)

Every group is required to have a constitution. If you were recognized last year, you may use the same one and it is already on file. Here is a sample constitution.
